Crystal ball required by the designer; if say for example you have a maximum of 8 PoE ports on the device but only own 3 devices, then the designer has to engineer it for 8 and that times 8 cost lands on you but you are only half using it.
Larger switches are often made without enough PoE power for all ports at full power.  Partly this is because lots of devices only use a fraction of the full power specified in the standard.
